Silver Screen Steroid Scandal!

With more and more names coming out as steroid users in Major League Baseball, our childhood heroes keep taking shots to the image. Each day that poster of Ken Griffey Jr. that we bought at the swap meet when we were 13 gets more and more suspicious. So it’s time we woke up and faced […]

Man Crush Update: Angel Killer

Boom! You see that?! That’s My Boy KERSHAW!1! putting a grade A ass whoopin’ on those sissies from Orange County. Complete dominance!

First, let me apologize for slacking on the man crush updates. I realize that this relationship you and I have is a two way street. Even if the courts won’t let me stand on your street anymore. Or anywhere withing 500 feet of you. […]

Position Power Poll: Catcher

Ah, the ‘ol backstop. Nothing like showing up to a day of work knowing that a 200 lb professional athlete on ‘roids (allegedly!) will try to knock you out in order to touch a little white piece of rubber.
Let’s review the “rules”:

Must have been in their prime (we’ll use making the All-Star team as a […]

Position Power Poll: 1B

I really feel like this might be one of the hardest positions for me. There have been so many great hitting first basemen in my lifetime, I’m sure this will come under some scrutiny. First, a review of the rules:

Must have been in their prime (we’ll use making the All-Star team as a measure) when […]
